Loxahatchee Groves Landowners Association restarts scholarship program; eight $1,000 awards given last year
Summary
During public comment at the June 10 meeting, Mary McNicholas announced that the Loxahatchee Groves Landowners Association plans to restart its scholarship program; the association awarded eight $1,000 scholarships last year to students attending universities, trade schools, and programs for special needs.
Mary McNicholas, a resident and representative of the Loxahatchee Groves Landowners Association, announced during public comment at the Town of Loxahatchee Groves special meeting on June 10 that the association plans to resume its scholarship program this year.
McNicholas said the LGLA awarded eight $1,000 scholarships last year and that the program supports students headed to traditional universities, trade schools and special‑needs programs. She invited interested residents to contact the LGLA for more information and said she had informational cards available.
Why it matters: for a small town with an estimated population of roughly 3,200 residents, the scholarships represent a recurring local effort to support higher education, vocational training and special‑needs programming for local youth.
McNicholas’s remarks were given during the public‑comment portion of the meeting; no town action or funding decision was taken at the meeting regarding the scholarships.
